“Haven’t you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?”

Shawshank, October 30, 2025

So, last night, huh? Podrick was in rare form. He jumped up onto the counter and knocked over one of Crystal’s water cups. He broke the lid, so I dumped it out and put it in the sink. The little guy got up into the sink, and stole the straw. I got to be able to listen to him for the next 20 minutes (probably only like 5 minutes) playing, loudly with it. High anxiety while high, was a great way to fall asleep! Was it really just the straw, or does he have broken, super sharp shards of plastic from the lid?

Well, I can’t find the straw, or any shards. I’m sure my mind will file that away for another night to think about.

He’s currently in full on hurricane Podrick mode right now.

Work wasn’t bad last night. Again, without a manager, the employees have taken it upon themselves to assign one guy to do the schedules. So we had three people, because we were expecting a truck. Well, the truck arrived hours before we did. Combine that with a relatively slow night, and you get 3 bored employees. I cleaned as much as I could. Eventually, it was time to close. Me and the part timer tried to get the dude in charge to close at a normal speed. That didn’t work, so I closed down the computers while the guy actually closing, just chatted about nothing at all.

I made it home, finally.

Woohoo!

Back at it again this afternoon. Let’s goooo!

Finger in the air, slinging prayers, hair wind blown

Here we are, awake again. Podrick was a very good boy this morning. I don’t know about Crystal but I was only awake a couple of times. He only walked over me once or twice. So I call that a win. There’s not a lot of snow out there anymore….

I was caught in the middle of a polar bear trap

Good morning everyone! I only got up once in the night, and quickly fell back asleep until 6:52. I just got up, made the bed, and started the day. It’s bright and sunny out. I don’t think we’re expecting rain today, but it’s gonna be a windy one out there….
